yeah, i think Tapio's solution is better (cleaner). For the compiler 
both result are exactly the same, in my solution the #define is given as 
a compiler option, in Tapio's through an #include file.
But for an include-path, i still think an #include is cleaner, so i 
would stick with Tapio's solutions.
